Every student should be able to focus on learning—not on where their next meal is coming from or how they’ll pay an unexpected bill. Your gift helps University of Minnesota students meet essential needs like food, mental health care, and emergency support—often at the moment they need it most.
This type of whole-student funding can supplement a more traditional but often life-changing form of student support through scholarships, easing the financial burden of tuition and opening doors to opportunities and bright futures.
Together, we can help students thrive—both in and out of the classroom.
